I'm trying to include a scanned image of a signature in with my signature in Outlook. I tried to just paste it in but when it got to the recipients none of them could see the scanned image, only an empty box with red 'X' in it (missing image symbol) I'm using Windows XP and Outlook XP. How can I put this signature in?

I can't get the image to show. Any Ideas.
Here are the different ways that I've used the code:

(this one works for web viewing but not for e-mail)

<img src=&quot;RoySig.jpg&quot; /><BR>

(these three don't show the image)

It looks like that took care of it. The original code was close just had some extra

Here's the code I ended up using:

<img src=&quot;C:\RoySig.jpg&quot;><BR>

That solution, of course, assumes that all the recipients of your e-mail have a C:\RoySig.jpg file on their hard drive.
 
Not really. With the e-mail signature working as HTML coding then it's the same principal as a web page. I've already tried the code, sent it to some contacts and it works. The code and the image is built into the e-mail so as long as the other users accept HTML formatted e-mails the only downfall becomes slightly larger e-mails.
